Lock You In My Heart Chapter 556
Chapter 556
Gabrielle sounded sincere. She wanted Jonathan to understand that she wasn’t someone who would sell her morals for money.
Money wasn’t the only thing in the world, and she didn’t want to accept his rewards.
“Ms. Jones, I’m surprised to hear that. Melissa was right about you. But I hope you understand how much I love my wife; she is everything to me. You saved her, which means you’ve saved my life as well. I want to give this reward as a token of my gratitude. If you don’t think it’s enough, I don’t mind giving you more,” Jonathan said intently.
Judging from his attitude, Gabrielle could tell he was not joking.
“Mr. Walker, you have misunderstood me. This is too much. I can’t accept it. Since you love Ms. Glyn so much, you should also know what kind of person she is. She wouldn’t thank me this way,” Gabrielle said sternly.
Gabrielle and Melissa shared a good relationship. She felt humiliated to accept a check for helping her. She felt the money would change the dynamic of their relationship.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Jones. That was very impolite of me. I just wanted to thank you, but I should have considered your feelings as well. It’s my fault. Please pardon me.” Jonathan viewed the world with a business mind; he didn’t take Gabrielle’s feelings into account.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Walker. I understand your intention. You don’t have to apologize to me.
I know you are doing this because you love Ms. Glyn a lot. I don’t blame you. I am willing to donate more blood and help in every way possible to make sure Ms. Glyn is fine,” Gabrielle said solemnly.
“Melissa is lucky to have a student like you. Well… since you don’t want to accept my gift, can you at least accept my business card?” Jonathan stretched out his business card to Gabrielle and looked at
her expectantly.
“Mr. Walker, I…” “Ms. Jones, please don’t refuse it. If at all you need anything, don’t hesitate to call me. I will always be happy to help you.” Jonathan meant every word he said. After a moment’s thought, Gabrielle accepted the card and slid it into her pocket. “Thank you for the business card, Mr. Walker. It’s getting late, and I have to leave. If you need anything else, please contact me.” Gabrielle didn’t want to waste any more time. She wanted to go home with Westley.
They didn’t plan to stay at the hospital that night. It was time to go back. “Ms. Jones, you can leave now. Remember what I said. If you need any help, just call me. I will absolutely help you with anything you need. Please don’t hesitate.” Jonathan wanted Gabrielle to understand that he would keep his promise. “Thank you, Mr. Walker. Goodbye.” Gabrielle stood up and left. Jonathan sat there quietly and watched Gabrielle walk out of the cafe and get into a black car parked outside. “Westley, why are you waiting for me here?” Gabrielle shot a quizzical look at him. She had thought that Westley would wait for her in the child’s ward, but he had parked his car in front of the coffee shop.
“I wanted to s
ee you earlier. So how did it go?” Westley asked as he planted a soft kiss on her forehead.
“Mr. Walker just wanted to thank me for donating blood to Ms. Glyn. Do you know how much reward he is going to give me?” she asked, trying to keep a straight face.
“How much?” Judging from Jonathan’s status, Westley guessed it must have been a generous amount.
“Ten million! Well, I should accept it. Then, I’ll start my own studio, or travel around the world,” she joked.
“Do you regret it?” Westley arched an eyebrow and studied her face. He knew Gabrielle well enough to know that she wouldn’t care about the ten million. If she wanted money, she would have already asked him a long time ago. He had enough money to make her dreams come true.
“Well, I would regret it only if I took the money. Ms. Glyn has helped me a lot. The least I could do was donate my blood. If I took Mr. Walker’s money, I would be no different from a robber.” Gabrielle leaned back and heaved a sigh of relief.
“Gabrielle, if you want to start a studio, I’ll help you with it. If you want to travel around the world, I don’t mind accompanying you. I’m willing to follow you to the end of the world. We don’t need anyone else to sponsor,” Westley promised, staring into her eyes.
He believed he was capable of fulfilling all her needs without relying on anyone. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“Westley, I’m not competent enough to start a studio now. I was kidding. I’ll start one when I have the skills and expertise. Let’s go home.” Gabrielle didn’t think Westley would take it seriously. She almost forgot how much Westley cared about her. If Gabrielle joked about something, he would assume it was true and help her realize her dream. Therefore, she had stopped joking around him because he took her every word to heart. “Okay. Back to our sweet home.” Westley started the car. “But Mr. Walker has given me his business card. He said I could ask him for help but I don’t think it’s necessary.
I don’t want to bother anyone.” Gabrielle shrugged dismissively. “You don’t have to bother others but you can always bother me. Do you understand?” Westley smiled. “Of course, I know. I’m going to bother you all my life. You can’t escape from me.” Gabrielle glanced in the direction of the hospital. “It’s my pleasure.” “Westley, is the kid still in a coma? What did the doctor say? How’s the investigation going?” Gabrielle quickly changed the topic.
“Slater has done a lot of research. Apparently, the child lives with his mother in Bangkok. Although they live a wealthy life, the child’s father is still unknown. His mother is probably the mistress of a big shot,
and the boy is an illegitimate child. There is no information about his father. We have tried every way possible, but it looks like we have hit the dead end. No clue at all.” Westley summarized the information Slater had shared with him. After a moment’s silence, Gabrielle blew out a loud breath. “I guessed it. The identity of the child and his mother remains a secret.”
